| Head to Panglao Island, Bohol for Some R & R |
It's summertime and practically everyone is heading to the beach or some faraway place for a much needed rest and relaxation. But one of the hassles of the summer season is the large crowds heading in the same direction. Chances are, one will be elbowing their way to the beach amongst a crowd of revelers and partygoers or standing in long lines outside a jam-packed shower room of a resort. A better way to spend one's vacation minus the large crowds is to go out of town during off season. It is a perfect time to get away from the stressful life in the city when most people are already busy with work. One local destination that is worth visiting during off season is Panglao Island in Bohol. In recent years, Panglao Island has slowly earned a reputation in the country as one of the not-to-be-missed destinations for local and foreign travelers. The island – known for its serene beaches, diving spots, and biodiversity – is an ideal destination for travelers looking for a quieter place to unwind. Unlike the more congested islands of Boracay or Puerto Galera come peak season, Panglao Island boasts of tranquil, less crowded beaches perfect for those who prefer a quiet time on the beach. Vacationers planning to visit the island in the coming months need not worry about finding good accommodations as there are lots of places to stay in the area. Several resorts in the area even offer budget-friendly packages to visitors. Flushing Meadows Resort & Playground for one is offering special packages to bookers. The resort's two current packages – the Vacation Package and Honeymoon Package – give Panglao visitors a chance to stay at its exclusive rooms in a more affordable rate and private setting.

| Escape to Bohol |
Whenever summer comes along, most beachcombers tend to think of Boracay or Puerto Galera as the places to go to for a fun-filled time at the beach. While those places are deserving of their reputation as excellent summer vacation spots, there are lots of other places in the Philippines that are just as interesting and exciting, and are worth checking out, too. If you're the type who wants more than the usual partying nightlife by the beach, you might want to try Bohol.
Just starting to emerge as an ideal place for discovery and adventure, Bohol has lots to offer the wide-eyed child in all of us. Aside from being famous for their Chocolate Hills and cute, shy tarsiers, which are already givens as must-sees when you visit the island, Bohol has several other natural wonders just waiting to be explored.
At the many beaches alone that have yet to be fully commercialized, there are already plenty of exciting things one can do. You can go whale and dolphin watching in Pamalican Island, snorkeling and scuba-diving at the countless dive spots and see the vibrant marine life up-close, or try your hand at some water sports.
If you're in the mood for some land-based adventure, you can go island-hopping, admire the limestone hills, go through the Loboc River and marvel at the majestic falls there, or visit the numerous caves and bring out the spelunker in you. For sure, nature lovers will never run out of things to rave about in these tours around the island.
Of course, it would also be nice to have a place to relax after all that exploring all over Bohol. There are several ideal places to choose from, but if you're willing to splurge a little on your vacation, the Eskaya Beach Resort and Spa in Panglao would be a good place to take note of. This Bohol resort , located at the southern tip of the island which is known for its white sand beaches, takes pride in allowing vacationers to privately relax at their infinity pool or pamper themselves with their rejuvenating spa service after having had their fill of adventure for the day.

| AMARELA Is Where Great Memories Are Made |
We Filipinos are getting to appreciate the beautiful sights in our native Philippines more and more nowadays. We Pinoys who are out to excitedly taste the first raindrop of adventure or who are on the hunt for idyllic hideaways have much to discover and explore when they steal away to Bohol, home to the country’s picturesque beaches and romantic retreats.
And quietly sitting by the longest stretch of white beach on Panglao Island is a premium boutique resort called Amarela. Sitting on top of a gentle slope of land, it commands easy access for beachcombers to enjoy a stunning view of the Bohol Sea.
If you want to enjoy staying at a rustic hideaway with massive turn-of-the-century wooden doors, antique furniture and intricate latticework while reaping the convenience of having full accessibility to Internet, satellite TV, and airconditioning, Amarela Resort fits the description like a glove, and is the resort for you.
You can choose to stay in the charming Suite Rooms, or opt to embrace the panoramic seaside with rooms with a Balcony with Sea View.
Wood is predominantly used in the interiors of the guest rooms, creating an atmosphere that is both cozy and comfortable.
And just as wood as an element can be pliant and bending, and strong and unyielding, you have an option to succumb to your lazy indulgences as you take leisure tours around Amarela’s plush surroundings, or be firm in your plans to seize adventure using their available kayaks, bancas (native boats) and snorkeling facilities. You can freely allow yourself to be molded to lean towards wherever the refreshing sea breeze will take you.
More often than not, you will find that guests always have memorable stories to share about their stay at Amarela, a lot of them considering it a place that has mostly reminded them of a familiar country home where you can get away from it all. Check out this private and unique beachside retreat, and enjoy an enjoyable story now yours for the telling.

| Great value vacations in islands known for luxury |
 Luxury, by its nature, tends to seek the higher ground in the Philippines. What is luxury in places where five-star establishments offer the same treats and extras? Luxury has its tendency to push the limit further. And in the end, it all comes down to what luxury gives in exchange of its cost.
The Philippines is where hard-earned money can go very far, a nice place to buy into. Vacation islands in the Philippines like Cebu, Bohol, and Davao can be really cheap or be really expensive. But, if you know your way around, you may have a Philippine vacation where every penny spent is worth it.
Sanctuary at Davao Pearl Farm (Under $120 a day) Refreshingly far from Manila and the giddy island beat of Boracay, the Samal Island in Davao has made a name for its idyllic atmosphere and dramatic coastline. Its Davao Pearl Farm Resort offers luxury, native-inspired rooms that flank the Davao beachfront.
Pearl Farm combines indigenous touch and modern living to refreshing effect in its Davao resort. Leisure, spa, and conference facilities are available, too, but the real luxury in staying at Pearl Farm consists of swimming with turtles, getting close to sunken war vessels, or simply finding your own stretch of white beach far from the madding crown.
Heritage tour in Cebu City (Under $110 a day) Called the “Queen City of the South,” Cebu is magnificent in the right places. Centuries-old churches and forts stand in the same locale as the commercial hubs in the port city of Cebu. A day at the Crown Regency acquaints hotel guests with the modern ethos of luxury hotel living, then with the quaint charm of Cebu City the next day.
With the tree-lined Osmena Boulevard as backdrop, Crown Regency towers above the Fuente Osmena in Cebu City and brings guests to the nightlife center and cultural hub of the island. Equally interesting is the Peak Restobar at the 23rd floor of its hotel in Cebu, the tallest in the city, which gives guests a panoramic view of Cebu while sipping cocktails and taking comfort food.
Bohol island adventure (Under $140 a day) Composed of posh beachfront villas, each with it own plunge pool, balcony, and landscaped garden, the Amorita Resort in Bohol offers the perfect place to enjoy the sun, beach, and crisp sea air of the island. With a Mandala Spa set to break cover in its resort in Bohol, Amorita guarantees luxury and comfort in island living.
But Amorita is more than just for relaxation. The water off the Amorita Resort in Bohol is a marine sanctuary, where a glass wall can be seen enclosing an area to protect an array of marine life. From here to the far reaches of the Bohol Sea, various natural wonders, old houses, and cultural sites await resort guests for a tropical island adventure.
Not to miss is a lunch on a boat ride down the Loboc River in Bohol, with thick rainforests sliding along as you feast on favorite Philippine delicacies. Labels: Beach Resort, Bohol Resort, Cebu, Davao, Davao Resort, Hotel in Cebu, Island Adventure, Travel Tour |
